The colon (large intestine) is a distal part of the gastrointestinal tract, extending from the cecum to the anal canal. It receives digested food from the small intestine, from which it absorbs water and ions to form faeces. Anatomically, the colon can be divided into four parts â ascending, transverse, descending and sigmoid. These sections form an arch, which encircles the small intestine.
Omnivores tend to have longer intestines than carnivores. The small intestine of a near-term fetal pig can be as long as 350 cm (~ 12 feet long) when separated from the mesentery (which holds and their blood vessels in a mass). Within the various sections of the small intestine, digestion of food and absorption of nutrients occurs. Large intestine. Far shorter than the small intestine, the large intestine (the colon is one region of it) is responsible for the absorption of water and vitamins and preparation of undigested materials as feces. The large intestine also houses large amounts of symbiotic bacteria.
